Aero8Tuner

Take your attention: White Windows for Windows 8 software was incapsulated by Aero8Tuner and not exists anymore!Here is my brand new work for Windows 8. Aero8Tuner is the successor of my famous Aero Tuner (for Windows 7) and White Windows (for Windows 8 ). It allows you to change all settings of DWM/Aero at Windows 8 RTM+.

to disable windows coloring. If you will enable this undocumented feature, the color of windows borders in Windows 8 will be always white. The taskbar will use Aero color. So, this is way to have separate color for windows and taskbar.

to change color balance (affects the intensity).

to force High Contrast mode for regular themes. The blurless buggy Aero transparency will be appeared in this case.

Why some features of "classic" Aero Tuner is missing in this version?

Microsoft changed DWM in Windows 8. Some parameters was completely removed, such as Transparency and amount of Aero Srtipes. Some parameters like second Aero color, Blur, balance between colors has no effect in Windows 8 because DWM ignores their values.

This is a free and portable application and does not require to be installed. It works only on Windows 8 RTM and does not require any additional software.This app has been superseded by Winaero Tweaker and is no longer being maintained. Use the following options from Winaero Tweaker:You can download Winaero Tweaker here: Download Winaero Tweaker.

Nicely done, it looks elegant, but some people will have an issue because of eyesight problems. Some peeps need darker or neutral tones like grey to look at a screen comfortably for hours, maybe a tweak to this software to let it do that?

i am currently using win 8 pro. whenever i click aero 8 tuner, then nothing happened. i installed my netbook with the same OS with my PC. but on my netbook, aero 8 tuner work very well. can you tell what wrong with my pc??

You need not do that things.It works on the fly for meI an wondered if it does not apply all settings on the fly for you

it apply the sittings immediately yes, but even if i save the theme, when i re-start ... the original color comes back again , so is there is a way to save it or it is just for a temp change for the moment only ??

thought it was a great idea to try this on the release version of Windows 8; it wasn't.no idea what happened but this messed up my DWM, right click and left click won't work, charms and start menu doesn't work going to have to try booting in to safe mode and backing up my files and reinstall Windows 8

Thanks so much for this incredible app. It would be great to have the option to set any colour to the window border and any colour to the taskbar. Are you planning to update the app to allow this?
